The stack trace isn't all to informative, but this warning from
*inferior-lisp* may be:

,----
| ;; Connection to Emacs lost.
| ;; [READ from #<INPUT STRING-INPUT-STREAM>: #<PACKAGE SWANK> has no external symbol with name "TOGGLE-TRACE-FDEFINITION"]
`----

Actually, I think I just found the problem. I had not reloaded the
updated slime.el into my long-running XEmacs instance. Upon reload,
tracing works as expected.

Sorry for the noise.
